We create wallpaper based on custom measurements indicated at the time of order so that it fits perfectly on your wall. Considering that most of the walls are not perfectly straight, it is important to measure the wall at multiple points and always choose the larger measurement for both length and height. We recommend adding 10-15 centimeters more than the wall dimensions to have a margin of safety that will be useful during the installation phase.
Installation made easy thanks to the bubble free adhesive
Our wallpaper is produced based on your specific measurements, the sheets are numbered in the order in which they must be installed and complete with marking signs for correct and simple installation.
1
Surface Preparation
The first operation is to necessarily remove the old paint or wallpaper.
Prepare your wall by filling in cracks, small holes and irregularities as they would become visible once the wallpaper is installed.
Use a lamp light to carefully inspect the wall and determine if it is flat and smooth.
Wash the surface and make sure it is smooth and clean
2
Wall Treatment
Before applying the film, you need to apply a coat of transparent dust-proof fixative primer
If the wall is very porous (large plaster walls, drywall or similar), two coats of primer should be applied.
Do not install on damp or moldy walls.
Apply a colored primer in case the wall has strong colors or color variations that could be seen through the wallpaper.
Begin the installation after at least 24 hours from complete drying

Reference for the first sheet
The first sheet is very important for a correct installation.
Try to be as precise as possible so that it is installed straight.
In this regard, make a line or vertical markings just visible with a pencil at a distance of 60 cm from the beginning of the wall using a level or a meter.
You will have to install the first sheet following your reference signs.
Remember to make the markings faint to avoid the lines being seen through the wallpaper.
4
Positioning of the first sheet
Position the first sheet on the wall following the lines previously made.
Secure the sheet with tape in the desired position.
Place a strip of tape horizontally across the entire width of the sheet about 30 cm from the upper end.
5
First step installation
Once the sheet is in position, separate the adhesive film from the silicone paper up to the height of the adhesive tape, letting it fold back on itself.
Cut off the excess silicone paper.
6
Installation second step
Start the application by pressing the film with the spatula from right to left (and vice versa) to adhere the paper to the wall.
Start from the center allowing the air to flow.
Start from the area just above the tape paper to the upper end.
7
Installation third step
Remove the tape paper (the film will hold itself in place).
Lift the remaining part of the sheet and unroll the siliconized paper on the back for about 15/20 cm.
Reposition the paper in the previous position and continue the application downwards.
Continue the application by continuing to unroll the siliconized paper on the back 15/20 cm at a time until the end of the sheet
7
Installation of other sheets
Position the second sheet following the same procedure as the first (step 4) taking care to match the image with the previous sheet.
Attention: each sheet must be overlapped with the previous one by about 1.5cm and not simply adjacent.
Each sheet (except the last one) includes an overlap.
8
Overlap markings
Each sheet includes an overlap of 1.5 cm. The overlap indicators are located on the left side of the sheet both in the upper and lower part.
Use these markers to better align the panels with the graphics.
9
Application of the last sheet
Install the last sheet following the same procedure as the previous sheets
In this case, also press the excess of 2/3 cm towards the corner towards the other wall.
10
Trim off excess material
Trim the excess with the help of a spatula or a paperhanger's rule to press the upper and lower edges.
Cut carefully with a sharp utility knife so that the cut is clean and precise.
